Palmetto Marketing
Ripoff deception

I am writing this in hopes that it will prevent someone from being ripped off. A young woman appeared at my door on an early Sunday morning. She gave me a sob story about how she could not afford college and, consequently, was selling magazines to finance her education.

She described her organization, Palmetto Marketing, as a charitable organization that sold magazines at discounted, school rates. She even went so far to say that I could write this purchase off on my taxes as a donation. (Except for the $10 "processing fee"). Unfortunately, this purchase cannot be written off because the reciept clearly states "We are not affiliated with any local high school or college." So there goes the discounted, "school" rates and the charitable organization notion.

It gets worse, the young woman gave me a web address for the company where I could find a phone number. Of course, the website does not exist and with a little research, I found out that Palmetto Marketing is actually a sales and marketing company specializing in timeshares. I figure they give out false information in order to make cancellations of transactions impossible.

So, the next time someone shows up at your door trying to sell you magazines, politely shut the door in their face.
